- The Hull–Chelsea–Wakefield Railway was a 33 km (20.5 mi) heritage railway in Quebec, Canada, running tourist trains through the scenic Gatineau Hills and beside the Gatineau River between Hull (part of the city of Gatineau) and the tourist town of Wakefield (part of La Pêche municipality) from May to October, using a 1907 Swedish steam locomotive, E2 class number 909, and 1940s-built Swedish passenger cars. On average, the railway attracted about 50 000 tourists and generated revenues of about $8 million for the region. The line was closed by a 2011 track bed washout and as of 2022 has not re-opened. Cost to repair is estimated above $5 million. (en)

Tracté par une ancienne locomotive à vapeur originaire de Suède, il circulait, de mai à octobre, sur les 64 km de la ligne entre la ville de Gatineau et le village touristique de Wakefield, au Québec. Il pouvait transporter plus de 500 passagers pour un voyage de cinq heures, dont trois dans le train et deux au village de Wakefield. (fr)
